RE: Sound Quality Changes caused by Sata cables.

Shieldless this:

short and sweet but no good in terms of SQ.

Shielded:

I don't know origin; it was supplied with a motherboard.

I have ordered a bunch of shielded cables from different sources. One claims to have 'elaborate' shielding (modDIY.com).

I shall try them and see if I can reach some sort of conclusion.

You should cut up your cable to see how well it is shielded and how good the conductors are. Some usb cables even have steel or aluminium weaved shields that require an argon arc to weld!
